The One Who Ran Away

32 parts Complete Mature

The best way to keep a secret is to pretend there isn't one. -Margaret Atwood Very few of us are what we seem. -Agatha Christie There are some secrets which do not permit themselves to be told. Men die nightly in their beds, wringing the hands of ghostly confessors, and looking them piteously in the eyes - die with despair of heart and convulsion of throat, on account of the the hideousness of mysteries which will not suffer themselves to be revealed. -Edgar Allan Poe *** The accident. The move. The job. The secret. Josephine Hall has too many dirty secrets. When she and her family move, the secrets are buried once again. But what happens when the stories from her past start to come out? That's when the underlying secrets are revealed.
